We reserve the right to suspend or permanently delete any account that violates these terms, attempts to abuse or damage our platform, or engages in behavior that harms other users or the integrity of the site.
In most cases we will attempt to notify you before taking action. For serious violations such as attempted unauthorized access, accounts may be suspended immediately without notice.

We are constantly improving OKSTEM. We may add new courses, update existing lessons, change the way features work, or occasionally take parts of the platform offline temporarily for maintenance. We will not remove content you are actively working through without reasonable notice.
We may update these Terms of Use from time to time. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of the platform after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
These Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute arising from your use of this platform that cannot be resolved informally will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Oklahoma.
